Sustainable Gifts for Everyone
Even if you feel you’re nailing sustainable living pretty well (good job!), when it comes to gift giving, it can feel like you have to go against your efforts to please others. With a little creative thinking, however, it isn’t always counterintuitive to gift. In fact sustainable gifts can be as easy as buying locally, shopping small, or even using eco-friendly gift wrap options!
Below are ideas for a variety of people on your list to get you started as well as a few certifications and/or stores to look at! You can see my personal list of sustainable shopping stores and items and don’t miss this collection of all my discount codes!

Gifts for Environmentalists
Sometimes I think it’s the hardest to gift to those of us concerned about sustainable living, but I think we’re fun to give to – nothing run of the mill but a new experience for everyone!
Local Gift Cards
Think coffee shops, kitchen stores, and restaurants! Local? Try any of these Sacramento cafes!
Experiences
A fun one to do together – wine tastings, tours, and classes! Our go to is Belden Barns – a great winery near Santa Rosa!
Second Hand
Don’t underestimate secondhand finds. Thriftbooks is one of my favorites for books, DVDs, and games!
I also like to ask in Facebook groups for gifts – especially kiddo items like toys and games. Read my honest Buy Nothing Group review to see how easy it is to get items from your community!
